Information is posted here for trip participants. During this week in Haiti we will be assisting CCH clinic staff to run school-based health check ups at two CCH partner schools near Jacmel (Lavanneau and EMEVO schools). We will be working with doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals, but we’ll also utilize other non-medical people to record heights, weights and other information. The team will stay and eat meals at CCH’s Isaiah Guest House in Jacmel.

Please review the CCH Travel Handbook.

Anyone who wishes to collect supplies for these school based clinics or CCH’s PT rehab center, we have a “wish list” of needed supplies which can be viewed/downloaded here.
